As a fitness competitor, Wilson won the Miss Galaxy competition in 1999.[1][7] Shortly after, she was signed by World Championship Wrestling, where she stayed from 1999 until 2001 (when it was purchased by WWE).[2][6][7] In 2001, she began appearing on World Wrestling Federation (WWF) television as part of The Invasion (by WCW, of the [then-] WWF) storyline.[4] Her most high-profile storyline took place in 2003 when she feuded with Dawn Marie.[4][8] Wilson has also been a part of the all-female stable (i.e., a group of storyline-associated characters), known as Vince's Devils, which ended its run in 2006.
Aside from pro wrestling, Wilson has been on the cover of several magazines, including FHM and Playboy (for which she posed twice).[5][7][8]
Early life
Wilson was born in Boise, Idaho.[1] She claims that while growing up she was painfully shy as a child.[7][8][9] Wilson found her niche in many school activities, including cheerleading, dance, and was very competitive in track and field.[1][7]
During her sophomore year of high school, after Wilson's interest in modeling grew more serious, her mother urged her to pursue it.[1] They visited an agency and were informed that Wilson would have to lose weight to be considered for jobs.[1] In the process of losing weight, she began a bout with anorexia nervosa and then bulimia that lasted from ages 14-to-20.[1][7]
After recovering from the disorder, Wilson became involved in fitness.[1][6] She began eating six meals a day and working out.[7] She placed third in her first competition,[1] and she later won the Miss Galaxy competition in 1998.[1][7] She then spent some time on the Extreme Fitness Team.[10] As part of the Women's Tri-Fitness Championships in 1998, Wilson won first place in the Grace and Physique round.[11]
Later in 1998, Wilson moved to Los Angeles to pursue acting.[1][8] She began acting classes and was introduced to an agent who helped her gain a few jobs.[1]
Professional wrestling career
World Championship Wrestling (1999–2001)
Wilson's start in wrestling came when she attended a World Championship Wrestling (WCW) show with her boyfriend in 1999.[6][7][8] After going backstage, she was asked to walk out to the ring with Scott Steiner.[6] Later, Kevin Nash expressed an interest in doing a storyline with her.[4][6][8] She debuted as "Samantha", who was brought in by the New World Order (nWo) to seduce David Flair into turning against his father, Ric Flair.[4][12] They appeared together on February 21 at Superbrawl when Wilson slapped Ric, and David zapped him with a taser.[13] After Ric Flair won the WCW World Heavyweight Championship from Hollywood Hogan at Uncensored inside a Barbed Wire Steel Cage match, David and Torrie took some time off from WCW television in April before returning in May to accompany David to the ring for matches. At the 1999 Bash at the Beach, Wilson acted as a valet for Flair as he successfully defended the WCW United States Heavyweight Championship against Dean Malenko.
She continued to accompany David to the ring until September when David was on the telephone with Torrie and later found out that Torrie was in the Filthy Animals' locker room flirting with Billy Kidman, this resulted in a feud between Flair and Kidman on the October 18, 1999 episode of Nitro when Torrie turned on him, resulting in Flair losing the match and the Animals beating on him, after the Animals stopped assaulting David, Torrie left with the Animals, It was around this time that Wilson began managing Billy Kidman and his Filthy Animals teammates.[4] As a result, she found herself involved in the Animals continuing feud with The Revolution.[4] On the November 22, 1999 episode of Nitro, during a tag team match between Billy Kidman and Konnan facing Creative Control for the WCW World Tag Team Championship, Billy Kidman looked up at the Turnertron and saw that Torrie Wilson and Eddie Guerrero were shown flirting inside his locker room on the "Kidcam", a hidden camera segment, which led to a storyline feud between Kidman and Guerrero.[4] Following this, Wilson once again disappeared from television. Wilson however returned on the January 19, 2000 episode of Thunder managing Billy Kidman, and in April 2000, Kidman and Wilson joined a stable known as the New Blood, making them both villainous characters. As part of their newest storyline, Kidman became jealous of the attention Wilson began to give to fellow New Blood member Horace Hogan. In June, Wilson gave Kidman a hit at the Great American Bash, causing him to lose to Horace's uncle, Hulk Hogan.[4]
Wilson was taken off of television following the encounter, reappearing at July's Bash at the Beach during a match between Shane Douglas and Buff Bagwell. After the match, Wilson and Douglas left together, which led to a feud between Kidman and Douglas.[14] At September's Fall Brawl, Wilson and Douglas defeated Kidman and Madusa in a mixed tag team match with scaffolding erected above the ring.[2] Wilson was released from WCW in December 2000. Although she would make one more appearance on the March 19, 2001 episode of Nitro being held hostage by Shane Douglas.[2]
World Wrestling Federation/Entertainment
The Invasion and feuding with Dawn Marie (2001–2003)
Wilson made her television debut as a villain on the June 28, 2001 episode of SmackDown! as part of The Alliance during the Invasion angle in 2001.[4] In her first storyline with the company, she portrayed Vince McMahon's latest affair.[15] She also regularly teamed with fellow WCW performer Stacy Keibler. The duo made their wrestling debuts in a Bra and Panties match against Lita and Trish Stratus at the InVasion pay-per-view, which Stratus and Lita won by stripping their opponents to their underwear. The following night on Raw, Wilson defeated Stratus in a Paddle on a Pole match.[2] Despite her relative lack of in-ring experience, Wilson, alongside Keibler and Ivory, regularly feuded with the Divas,[16] as well as interfering in matches on behalf of other wrestlers in The Alliance.
She became a fan favorite during the Invasion storyline when her character began an on-screen romance with Tajiri.[4] This new romance caused Keibler to turn against Wilson, and as a result of this, Wilson defected to the company. Wilson defeated Keibler in the first ever lingerie match at No Mercy.[2] When the first ever brand separation of the company roster took place in April 2002, Wilson was drafted to SmackDown!.[17] Shortly after this, as part of the storyline, Tajiri soon became jealous over the increased attention that Wilson received from other men, so he forced her to wear a geisha outfit,[4][18] and he also appeared to mistreat her in matches.[2] Wilson finally grew tired of this, and during Tajiri's match against The Hurricane, she got on top of the announcer's table and stripped off her clothing. The distraction allowed The Hurricane to pick up the win.[2][19] At Rebellion 2002, Torrie and her real life boyfriend at the time Billy Kidman defeated John Cena and Dawn Marie in an intergender tag team match. After the match Torrie and Kidman kissed.[2] Torrie then got her first WWE Women's Championship match on Smackdown! after Women's Champion Molly Holly invaded the show interrupting Torrie's photoshoot and challenging her to a match in which Torrie was unsuccessful in winning.
Wilson started a controversial feud with Dawn Marie in September 2002,[4][8] in which Dawn would start a relationship with Wilson's real-life father Al Wilson.[6][8][20] On the October 17 episode of Smackdown!, Torrie teamed up with Rikishi in losing effort to the team of Dawn Marie and Matt Hardy[21] In response, Wilson defeated Dawn at No Mercy in October.[22] Soon afterwards, Dawn would get engaged to Al, and told Wilson that she would break it off if she spent a night in a hotel room with her, though Dawn would later reveal this was a lie. Dawn would eventually show footage of this at Armageddon.[4][6][23] The feud continued into the 2003 when Dawn and Al got married on the January 2 episode of SmackDown! in their underwear.[23] One week later, Al then, in storyline, died from a heart attack after having rigorous sex numerous times in succession on their honeymoon.[4][23][24][25] Wilson would defeat Dawn again at the Royal Rumble in what was billed as a Stepmother vs. Stepdaughter match.[4][25] The feud lasted four months.
Playboy and various feuds (2003–2005)
In March 2003, Wilson appeared in a pictorial and on the cover of Playboy magazine.[4] A few months earlier, when her pictorial was announced, a short storyline feud with Nidia developed, with the latter being jealous of the fact that Wilson was chosen for the cover and spread in the magazine.[26] In weekly vignettes aired on SmackDown!, both Nidia and her on-screen boyfriend Jamie Noble made trips to The Playboy Mansion to complain to Hugh Hefner over his choice.[26]
On the SmackDown! after Wrestlemania XIX, during a segment labeled as Torrie's Playboy Coming Out Party former Diva and Playboy covergirl Sable made her return to WWE after a four-year absence.[4] This began a storyline between the two women where for weeks, Sable played mind games with Wilson, being friendly one moment and unfriendly the next.[27] This all led up to a bikini contest between the two at Judgment Day, which Wilson won.[28] After the contest, Wilson kissed the former Women's Champion Sable on the lips, showing her that there was "no hard feelings" due to Wilson's win over the WWE veteran.[29]
Continuing her feud with Noble and Nidia from earlier in the year, Wilson managed Billy Gunn upon his WWE return in the summer of 2003.[4] The feud came to an end after Nidia and Noble both became fan favorites and sided with Gunn and Wilson. After the formation of this alliance, Wilson, Nidia, and Dawn Marie feuded with Shaniqua for a short period of time, which led to Shaniqua physically dominating Wilson and Nidia in a handicap match.[2]
Wilson teamed with Sable in March 2004 to feud with Raw Divas Stacy Keibler and Miss Jackie.[4] The feud's storyline centered on the latter duo's jealousy of Wilson and Sable as Playboy cover girls, as well as their recently being named cover girls yet again, as the two Divas were announced to be featured together in an upcoming Playboy March 2004 issue.[4] After weeks of rivalry, Wilson and Sable defeated Keibler and Miss Jackie in a Playboy Evening Gown match at WrestleMania XX by stripping their opponents of their evening gowns.[30]
In May 2004, Wilson began a second feud with Dawn Marie. As part of the feud, the two had a match with Torrie's career on the line when the SmackDown! General Manager at the time, Kurt Angle, made the stipulation for the match at Judgment Day, which Torrie defeated Dawn to keep her career.[31]
Later in the year, Wilson engaged in a short feud with Sable, who defeated her at the Great American Bash.[32][33] On the July 1 edition of SmackDown, Sable was defeated by Wilson in a rematch.
In November 2004, Wilson began feuding with Hiroko.[4] On the December 2 episode of SmackDown!, Wilson teamed up with Rey Mysterio and Rob Van Dam in winning effort against Hiroko, Kenzo Suzuki and Rene Dupree.[2] On February 10, 2005 on a special episode of SmackDown! (recorded on February 4 in Saitama, Japan), Torrie defeated Hiroko in a kimono match by removing her kimono first.[34]
Torrie was then involved in a short-lived feud with MNM valet Melina. The two had a bra and panties match at Great American Bash, with Candice Michelle as the special guest referee. Perez defeated Wilson in that match as well as a rematch later that week on Smackdown!, with the help of Jillian Hall.[35]
Vince's Devils (2005–2006)
It was revealed on August 22, 2005 that Wilson and Candice Michelle had been moved to the Raw brand as a part of a trade in exchange for Stacy Keibler and Christy Hemme.[36] On that night, Wilson and Candice became villains by attacking 2005 Diva Search winner Ashley Massaro.[4] Her and Candice's storyline feud with Massaro continued over the next couple weeks, as the duo, along with their enforcer Victoria (dubbed as the "Skankateers" by commentator Jim Ross), made things difficult for Massaro.[4] On the September 5 episode of Raw, the evil Wilson defeated Massaro after interference from Victoria and Candice.[2] Massaro evened the score on the September 12, 2005 episode of Raw when she brought out the returning Trish Stratus, and the duo proceeded to attack the villains.[37] Later that night, Wilson teamed up with Victoria in losing effort to Trish Stratus and Ashley.[2] This led to a tag team match at Unforgiven, where the team of Stratus and Massaro defeated Wilson and Victoria.[38] The following night on Raw, Wilson was defeated by Stratus after the match Wilson, Victoria and Candice attacked Ashley and Trish.[2] The feud continued into WWE Homecoming, where Stratus and Massaro defeated Wilson, Candice, and Victoria in the first ever three on two Bra and Panties match by stripping all three of their opponents.[39]
Wilson was absent from WWE television for quite some time after this, leading to rumors and false reports that she had been released from WWE.[40][41] In actuality, she had taken a leave of absence to tend to some "personal issues".[40] Wilson was surprised by the rumors after some media personnel offered to help her find work.[40] WWE issued a statement on their website, in which Wilson also commented, denouncing the rumors.[40] In the statement she joked she had to "call the WWE office and ask them if they forgot to fire me".[40]
On October 17, Wilson made her return to Raw, where she, Candice and Victoria faced off against the team of Stratus, Massaro, and their new ally Mickie James in a winning effort after Wilson pinned James.[2] On November 28 episode of Raw, Wilson teamed up with Victoria and Candice Michelle in losing effort to Trish, Ashley and James.[42] On the February 13 episode of Raw, Wilson was accompied by Michelle in losing effort to Ashley.[2] Vince's Devils was a short-lived alliance. Wilson soon became a fan favorite once again, after Candice and Victoria both turned against her. On the March 13 episode of Raw, Torrie helped Trish retain the Women's Championship against Victoria whom was accompied by Candice Michelle.[2] The following week on Raw, Torrie teamed up with Trish to defeat Victoria and Candice.[2] The storyline feud between Candice and Wilson led to a match where Wilson faced Playboy's newest cover girl, Candice, at WrestleMania 22 in a Playboy Pillow Fight.[4][43] Wilson won the match,[4] but the feud still continued on-and-off for some time. On the June 12, 2006 episode of Raw, Wilson defeated Candice in the first ever "Wet and Wild match", a wrestling match involving water balloons and squirt guns, in which the winner of the match would be on the cover of the WWE 2006 Summer Special magazine.[5]
Carlito's girlfriend, return to Smackdown! and final feuds (2006–2008)
Wilson also made a special appearance on WWE's ECW brand on August 22, 2006 representing Raw in a bikini contest against ECW Diva Kelly Kelly.[44] A winner was not decided, however, and a six-person mixed tag match began pitting Wilson, Tommy Dreamer, and The Sandman against the team of Kelly Kelly, Mike Knox, and Test. Wilson's team was victorious.[5][44]
In the final months of 2006, Wilson entered into an on-screen relationship with Carlito.[2] On the November 27 RAW, Torrie Wilson participated in a #1 Contenders Diva Battle Royal that was won by Victoria.[2] On the December 11 RAW, Torrie was defeated by Victoria and after the match Chris Masters proceeded to put Torrie in a Masterlock until she was saved by Carlito.[2] During this time, Ric Flair took an interest in Carlito, and Wilson accompanied the duo in a series of tag matches.[2] On March 12 episode of Raw!, Torrie was defeated by then Women's Champion Melina, after the match Melina attacked Wilson but was stopped by Mickie James, who was then stopped by Victoria, Melina then attempted to escape but was stopped by Ashley Massaro.[2] In May 2007, however, Carlito turned against Flair and dumped Wilson when he became a heel.[45] The storyline came to a halt when on the June 11 episode of Raw, when Wilson was drafted from Raw to SmackDown! as part of the 2007 WWE Draft.[46] As she returned, she acted a valet for Jimmy Wang Yang and the duo was placed in feuds against Victoria and Kenny Dykstra.

Torrie was one of the bridesmaids at the Theodore Long-Kristal Marshall wedding.[2] On the September 28 episode of SmackDown!, after losing to Victoria, she was attacked in the ring by the debuting villainess Krissy Vaine,[47] but the feud was prematurely dropped when Vaine left the company.[48] On the October 29 episode of Raw!
